HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutesql~ 302 ~li Commissioner Gribou suggested referencing actual heights instead of the number of stories in the height and setback requirements section. He also stated that sometimes pre-cast concrete panels are more questionable than cast in place concrete. The cast in place concrete provides a much higher quality than the other which. has a more industrial look. Commissioner Hall stated that he is concerned about the vagueness of such references as "minimal. activity at night" and "normal business. hours". The ordinance could specifically define "night" and then tie a specific decibel level to that time of day. The ordinance should be more specific. Commissioner Hall opened the public hearing. Spokesman for the East Bypass Homeowners Coalition, Ray Martyn, of 7803 Appomattox informed the Commission 'that he was. prepared to read a statement on behalf of the Coalition in support of the ordinance amendment. However, :the concern. expressed by the Commission with. respect to the activity allowed at night was a major point of discussion and is considered extremely. important. If the Commission is considering changing thin section of the ordinance, .then the Coalition may have to re- evaluate their position and have time for.. further discussions. The purpose of limiting activity at night was to exclude vehicular and truck traffic: As long as the intent of the Commission is similar to that of the Coalition's, the wording can possibly be worked out. City Planner Kee suggested that any particular type of use that has shift work be required to come before the Commission as a conditional use. The use permit process will give the Comrrussion and the public an opportunity to consider the request. Commissioner Hall closed the public hearing. Commissioner Gribou moved to recommend approval of the ordinance amendment with a request that the concern regarding activity at night be discussed by staff and worked out prior to the City Council meeting. Commissioner Smith seconded the motion which. passed unopposed (4 - 0). Commissioner Hall requested that staff inform the Commission of the changes to the ordinance. AGENDA ITEM NO.
